Compare two Bitwarden accounts

I have two emails that are the same, just different providers. Unfortunately I created my Android account with one email, and my Home account (windows) with the other. What is the easiest way to compare the two accounts to make sure the passwords are correct?

Thanks for any help

@komobu I think I don’t quite understand the question…

?? - I guess, you mean, the part before the @ is the same?

What exactly do you mean here? Compare what and where? - If you speak of two Bitwarden vault items for your two email accounts, then just try to login to the accounts and you’ll see if it was the correct password?! (and I would give both accounts a somewhat “distinctive” name so that you can find them easily in your vault)

If that wasn’t what you meant, then again, please explain what you really mean…

Yes…the part before the @ is the same.

What I mean is I have about 500 to 1000 entries in each account. I lost my Credit Card a few months ago and changed some passwords on my phone and some on computer. So if there is a way I could download all urls, usernames and passwords for each account to a file, I could compare both files and make the necessary corrections

Ah, so you mean you have two different Bitwarden accounts - one with each of the two different email addresses?!

You can export both “vaults” as CSV and “compare” them. → Export Vault Data | Bitwarden

Honestly, I would recommend to merge the two Bitwarden accounts into one then (you can access one BW account with all your devices) and delete the other account afterwards. - If you merged both CSVs and “clean them up” (“compare”, delete duplicates…) you could “purge” one BW account and import everything into it then.

But make sure, you don’t loose any data, if you do that.

Speaking of… be aware, that a CSV export doesn’t include:

  • cards
  • identities
  • passkeys
  • file attachments
  • Sends
  • items in the trash

So you would have to “export” any of those manually.

Thanks… exporting to csv would work great for me!

I would also suggest first creating a JSON unencrypted or password-protected export of both vaults and stashing them on an offline USB or something similarly secure. This will allow you to recover from any mistakes you might make during this process.
